Blunstone women's and men's boots fulfill all the qualities of a perfect shoe: resistant to harsh conditions, with a timeless design and a construction that demonstrates know-how and quality.

The Blundstone story began in 1870 in Tanzania, a vast island renowned for its wild and rugged regions, in Hobart. It was here that John Blundstone began making bespoke, hard-wearing shoes to withstand the harsh weather and conditions of the time on farms, city streets or factories. For over 150 years, Blundstone has continued to evolve.

Despite all the economic, societal and technological changes, Blundstone has always remained faithful to its initial values: quality and durability. With its innovative spirit, the Blundstone brand succeeded in overcoming the Great Depression, the 2 world wars and the rapid evolution of fashion with its dynamic trends.

In the 1960s, Blundstone developed its range with the iconic Chelsea boots model for women and men with the reference Blundstone #500. Available on Wigwam Store, these original and timeless boots incorporate technology and a unique “pull up” design. With its simple and transverse shape that adapts to every outfit, in all lightness and perfect insulation.

The Blunstone Chelsea boots are as comfortable as a slipper, with an original design, recognizable by the branded pull tabs and the V-shaped cut of the upper part of the shoe.

The iconic Blundstone boots have been worn by men and women all over the world: Australian soldiers, footballers, factory workers, farmers. They have inspired musicians, actors, dancers, chefs and athletes.

Over 25 million pairs of the #500 Blundstone range have been sold globally. Witnesses to its success are the many creatives, adventurers and workers all over the world who wear them every day.

Today Blundstone boots are worn by men, women and children all over the world for work, play or exploration. If Blundstone boots aren't going to change the world, their wearers probably will.

The sturdy Chelsea boots go perfectly with jeans. The beauty of Blundstone shoes is that you can dress them up or wear them casual. They go with a suit or can be paired with jeans and a flannel.

The Chelsea boot lends itself to all styles. This is a particularly good shoe with skinny jeans or boyfriend jeans, either rolled up slightly to show off the boot or tucked into it. For a comfortable "bohemian" look, loose, flowing clothes and skirts go perfectly with the sturdy style of the Chelsea boot. Festival-goers can forego the wellington boot and opt for a Blundstone with shorts. Not only will they keep your feet dry and warm, but they're also more stylish than traditional rubber boots.
